takes graded
16,345 awaiting a result
2,691 graded takes land strictly between the extremes, and the shape has a story: the counts climb as the scores improve. A take that earns partial credit is far more likely to be nearly right than nearly wrong.
This is where the curve-graded kinds live — mock draft picks (2,017), score predictions (490) and depth chart calls (198) — the kinds where missing by a little costs a little, not everything.
New England Patriots 27 — Pittsburgh 14
Yeah. I'm seeing, like, $27.14. [27-14, in response to "New England, 26. Pittsburgh, nothing" and a 41.5 total]
New England Patriots to beat Pittsburgh
The next one, as promised, New England and, and Pittsburgh. I think this is a New England spot. I just do... As bad as he looked last week, unless he's hurt, there's something I don't know. I think a lot of last week was mental, and I think this week, they get back on the, on the winning track.
Philadelphia Eagles to beat Tennessee
This is a game where the Eagles should win by like 20 points and just smother them.
San Francisco 49ers to beat Dolphins
So the Browns might have something to say about that as well. But Niners should murder them.
Pittsburgh Steelers to beat New England
I'm taking Pittsburgh in this spot. Pittsburgh's defense looked pretty solid.

Detroit Lions to beat Jets
The Lions host the Jets next week... I suspect the Lions will win. But not easily.
Los Angeles Chargers to beat Raiders
I don't think the Chargers go 0-2, especially 0-2 at home to start the season with the Cardinals and Raiders... So give me the Chargers this week.
Philadelphia Eagles to beat Titans
the Eagles on the road against the Titans, they seem to be easy picks. And I will have those plays going on at this point.
San Francisco 49ers to beat Dolphins
49ers against the Dolphins and the Eagles on the road against the Titans, they seem to be easy picks. And I will have those plays going on at this point.
Kansas City Chiefs to beat Colts
I expect Mahomes to look a little bit sharper, and I expect a very workmanlike Chiefs victory Sunday night.
